Recommending Activity Sensor Usage by Image Processing

A computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a computing device to cause the computing device to:

• identify, based on (i) sensor data from one or more sensors during a user activity and (ii) video data associated with the user performing the user activity, positioning of the one or more sensors with respect to the user, wherein the one or more sensors are at least one of (a) positioned within a given proximity of a user and (b) worn by the user;
• identify the user activity being performed based on the video data;
• assess data quality for the sensor data based on (i) the identified positioning of the one or more sensors and (ii) the identified user activity;
• and
• generate a recommendation for re-positioning at least one of the one or more sensors based on (i) said assessing and (ii) historical data pertaining to sensor data associated with the identified user activity.

A system comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• at least one processor operably coupled to the memory and configured for:
• identifying, based on (i) sensor data from one or more sensors during a user activity and (ii) video data associated with the user performing the user activity, positioning of the one or more sensors with respect to the user, wherein the one or more sensors are at least one of (a) positioned within a given proximity of a user and (b) worn by the user;
• identifying the user activity being performed based on the video data;
• assessing data quality for the sensor data based on (i) the identified positioning of the one or more sensors and (ii) the identified user activity;
• and
• generating a recommendation for re-positioning at least one of the one or more sensors based on (i) said assessing and (ii) historical data pertaining to sensor data associated with the identified user activity.
